I'm not debating that that happened. In 2005 our inspector at the Championship made us rewire all our Victor fans because we had wired them per IFI's instructions, which was a practice s/he objected to (The electronics were massive rats nest after that little adventure). We've had a pair inspectors spend quite a while examining a FP gearbox while consulting back and forth with each other to determine if a little shaving/sanding in order to mount it was legal (when the rules clearly stated we could do pretty much whatever we wanted with the gearbox). It is best to go into an inspection knowing the rules very well, rule knowledge varies from inspector to inspector; all you can be certain of is that you know that you built your robot to the rules, and have the evidence to prove it.
